    Question You want "HOW MUCH" for a fuel filter!!!!!.....

    Went to Autobarn today and got a price on a fuel filter for the 98 300 Tdi Disco I have. Well the nice gentleman behind the counter said he would find out for me, when he came back he said that there was non in stock but he could order one for me $98.40. I said excuse me but I only want to buy one not ten, yes sir that's the price for one he say's.

    It has been 10 years since I bought a fuel filter for a diesel Land Rover and that was for the 200 Tdi Defender I had, and I'm sure I only paid about $15.00 for it. So how much should I be paying for a fuel filter?

    I paid $40 odd for a fuel filter for the TD5 disco, did I pay to much?
    If so where is everybody else getting their filters from?
    Cheers Lionel

    Hey mate

    I had a very similar experience looking for a filter.

    I went into Supercheap and they didn't have any listed in the book, so I went to Bursons. I was quoted $86

    In the end I went back to Supercheap and had another look through the book again. My filter wasn't listed under Defender 300 Tdi but just as a Landrover 1993-1999 or something ridiculous like that

    Cost me $40 for a Ryco filter
